Once the locknut is removed, the propeller can be slid off. When putting the propeller
back on, verify there is a proper fi t of the groove and shear pin otherwise the propeller
will not be locked.

After using the motor always check and clear any weed or fi shing line that may have
become tangled around the propeller. Next, give the motor a wipe down with warm
water to remove any salt or sand particles and then spray it with fresh water.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Before connecting the motor’s cables
to the battery terminals, ensure all
switches are in the OFF position and
stand clear of the propeller.
Connect the red cable to the positive
(+) terminal and the black cable to the
negative (-) terminal, making sure the
terminals are clean before doing so. A
clean connection will minimise power
wastage and give you maximum power
from the battery.
The battery should be kept in a
well-ventilated location. We recommend
using a special deep cycle marine
battery for optimum performance.
